Three Types of Learners Whose Lives are Transformed by Project Based Learning | E205
Description
Can Project Based Learning (PBL) truly change the trajectory of a student's life? Join Ryan Steuer, CIO of Magnify Learning as we explore the answer through inspiring stories on the PBL Simplified Podcast. Meet Skyler, whose journey from disengagement to discovery highlights the profound impact PBL can have on students. Raised in a low socioeconomic background, Skyler found his education transformed when it connected to real-world applications. Hear how meaningful projects, like aiding parents with genetic disease awareness, ignited his passion for learning and photography, leading to accolades from Time Magazine and a flourishing freelance career.
But what about students who thrive in traditional academic settings? We delve into the story of Matt, a "point-getter" who excels in conventional environments yet struggles with collaboration and employability skills. Discover how PBL helped Matt and his peers develop essential workforce skills by revolutionizing grading systems to emphasize collaboration, agency, and presentation. Listen in as we share an insightful encounter with Matt's mother, revealing both the challenges and triumphs of implementing PBL. This episode showcases how PBL not only transforms individual students but also paves the way for reshaping educational systems and cultures.
